Last Film You Watched

X-Men - The Last Stand.

Very good superhero flick. Could have done without the below par teenage love drama but it's very good all the same and not afraid to off characters which is always a bonus. I've been pleasantly surprised by these X-Men movies as I had it in my head they were a bit poor for some reason.

Halle Berry absolutely phones it in though in pretty much all of them. The dialogue and characterisation of her character is pretty crap though so it can't have been easy to put in much of a performance. I think even Vinnie Jones has a bit more of a role to get into with Juggernaut. And seeing Frasier as Beast just really sticks out all the way through and I'm usually pretty much blind to the actor once I get into a film.

Thoroughly enjoyed it. Didn't thoroughly understand it but got the general gist. Hoyte van Hoytema is a masterful cinematographer.

Flew by for me though which isn't always what I find with Nolan films, even his Batman.

Not a bad film, though preferred Get Out in terms of Jordan Peele's directorial efforts.

Currently re-watching the Marvel 'Infinity Saga' films in order with the girlfriend as she hasn't seen them all/forgot. Just finished Iron Man 3, Thor: The Dark World is next up.

"Into the wild" not often I say it about a film but it was beautiful, 2+ hours flew by watching a movie with no real action in it,definitely worth a couple of hours of your time

I was working in Denali National Park, about 12 miles from that bus the summer he died. I recall the newspapers (Fairbanks and Anchorage) going wild with the news, and the letters to the editor section were full of judgmental opinions that would put the CA forum to shame. We hiked out to the bus a few times, it was in Healy, the nearest town to the park.

In any case, both the film and the book are terrific. Very touching stuff.
 

I rewatched "There will be Blood" (again). Daniel Day Lewis is simply amazing, and the cinematography is also superb. PT Anderson's films occupy a lot of slots on my all-time favorite films list. I recently discovered his very first film he made at age 17 "The Dirk Diggler Story", a 30 minute mockumentary that features a few characters/actors that later became Boogie Nights.

I’d never heard of him before watching and knew nothing about the film when I watched it. I really wasn’t expecting it to end the way it did. He was such a likeable fella and that’s what made the ending so tough to watch.
